It’s a new year! 🎉
Goals are flying around — gym plans, family time, new restaurants… and for some people: health insurance 🩺
If you’re wondering what you can enroll in right now, here’s the breakdown 👇
✅ Medicaid: Sign up now or whenever if you meet income + residency status (lawful permanent resident)
✅Private / Commercial Insurance: You can go to the Connect for Health Colorado website and enroll in a plan by JANUARY 15th
🚨You can sometimes enroll in private insurance outside of this time if you have a qualifying life event. (HINT: Getting sick/injury is not a qualifying life event.)
✅Medicare Advantage: You can switch Medicare Advantage plans, disenroll from an Advantage Plan, add a drug plan from now until March 31st
🚨You might be able to qualify for certain Special Enrollment Periods
If you don’t qualify for Medicaid or Medicare, and you miss open enrollment to purchase private insurance, you might qualify for a discount programs to take care of your health needs
